South Sinai Governor Backs Mega-Scale Green Hydrogen Project

General Khaled Foudh expressed strong support for the South Sinai green hydrogen proposal during a meeting with Mr Robert Valk of Renergy Group Partners and Green Tech Egypt.

General Khaled Foudh, Governor of South Sinai, expressed strong support for the proposed mega-scale green hydrogen project during a meeting with Mr Robert Valk, Founder and CEO of Renergy Group Partners and Green Tech Egypt. The project aims to produce more than 400,000 tons of green hydrogen each year.

Renergy Group Partners is leading the proposal in collaboration with the Ministry of Military Production (MOMP). Development accelerated after Prime Minister Dr Mostafa Madbouly approved the project the previous month. General Foudh also discussed the proposal with His Excellency Mohamed Salah, Minister of MOMP.

A South Sinai opportunity

The meeting reflected Egypt’s commitment to green hydrogen technology and sustainable development. The proposal aligns with the Cabinet’s decision to establish the National Council for Green Hydrogen and its derivatives, and with cooperation between South Sinai Governorate and the Ministry of Military Production.

General Foudh supported locating the Green Hydrogen Production Plant within the governorate, recognising South Sinai’s natural and topographic advantages. The project is expected to introduce advanced hydrogen technology and create thousands of jobs in the region.

Meeting participants

Other attendees included General Ahmed Mohammed Alexandrani, Secretary General of the Governorate; General Muhammad Shair, Assistant Secretary General; Mr Mabrouk Mohammed Al-Ghamrini, President of the City of Tor Sinai; Engineer Mustafa Abdo Ahmed, Director of the General Administration for Planning and Urban Development in South Sinai Governorate; and Mr Eslam Ramadan, Manager of Renergy Group Partners and Green Tech Egypt.
